I Didn't Know I Needed a Testimonial

I am so mad. I hate it when things happen to those you love that you have no control over and you feel so guilty afterwards. I know I couldn't have stopped it and I can't change it, but I still feel bad and I am so angry.

I didn't know I needed a testimonial as to why I should use Norwex, why it makes SO MUCH SENSE to rid my home of harsh chemicals. It's not required, no. They sure are great to have, until you actually have an experience that you have to deal with.

So here it is:

A few weeks ago, it was a Sunday, so we went to church like we usually do. No biggie. After church Ella had a party to go to but we had to wait for a bit for it to start so we went and did some widow shopping. It was fun! Ella chose to wear a skirt that day and it has been fairly warm so no leggings or tights were needed. We made a quick trip to the restroom before her party, and I noticed a weird rash on the backs of her legs. Hmmmm. We went on with our day and we had a blast.

Now came the time to try to figure out this weird, non-spreading, strangely placed rash. We tried everything, For a long enough period of time. It should have gone away. It should have lessened. Now, it didn't spread, and it didn't get worse, but it didn't go away. I couldn't figure it out. When there is something not right with your kiddo, it drives you crazy until you can solve it, right? Well, at least for me it does. Ugh

The kids recently had their yearly checkups so I thought that would be a good time to show our Dr. Ella's strange rash. Know what it was? Chemical Irritation from a toilet.(I promise our Dr knows nothing about me or my Norwex.)

I really try hard to pride myself on cleanliness and keeping my kids healthy and clean, so this really triggered something. Somewhere, sometime, my daughter sat on a CLEAN toilet and it damaged her skin (not permanently, no, but still). Our pediatrician said that those cleaning chemicals used to wipe off the toilet seat are the culprit. So now do we not only have to worry about using disgustingly dirty public restrooms, but now we have to worry about getting hurt from CLEAN ONES?!?!?! For crying out loud, that just ticks me off. I am 99% sure she got this from a public toilet, first of all because I Norwex, and second of all because it is my daughter's personal mission to visit every public restroom in the whole world!

So now, I am determined. My loved ones will not be hurt from chemicals anymore. They are dangerous and something much worse could happen when chemicals are involved. So, bye nasty chemicals, HELLO NORWEX am I glad to see you. I know I talk a lot about Norwex recently, but guys I'M CONVINCED! This is finally what I have been searching for and I am just so excited about it. I truly love the stuff.

  1. Wow! What a story. It is wild what chemicals can do. We are so brainwashed into believing our home is not clean without them, but it is far from the truth.
    Thanks for sharing and Norwex on!
